It's not actually yellow. If you were going to argue the line of us being sensitive to the colour of the sun, actually it's far more logical that we're least sensitive to the strongest colours about.
As long as we're on that subject for a moment, I'd like to comment that I learned back in the mid '80s that there's no such thing as a green star. The frequency range for green is so narrow, that even if a star's peak output is inside it there's going to be enough from one side or the other that we'd see it as either blue or yellow. This, BTW, was from a friend with a degree in Astronomy, so I'd tend to believe him.
